"Mintfur!" A pale brown tom hissed sharply, catching the attention of a smoky grey she-cat.
She let out a startled meow, for the tom's sharp hiss had caught her off guard. "My bad." She meowed sheepishly, licking a paw ever so elegantly and bringing it over a fluffy ear. And with that said, the small ShadowClan Medicine cat stretched her slender legs and took the led- walking swiftly only to glance back at the tom and ask if he was coming or not.
She had the bad habit of daydreaming much to the annoyance of others. But she was good at what she did and so she was never questioned.
They kept on walking, and it was very dark as they neared the ThunderClan camp. The first stars were beginning to appear, yet the path was still clear as everywhere around them was filled with the buzzing of fireflies and the excited meows of young warriors and apprentices as they raced with baskets made of small twigs, that had been expertly woven together by the nimble paws of RiverClan warriors. They often traded the baskets with the other clans for which the clan cats now used the baskets filled with the bugs as a source of light during the night. Which RiverClan had no problem boasting about anytime they had the chance. Mintfur rolled her eyes at the thought and the pale brown tom looked at her with curiosity.
Mintfur suddenly felt her paws touch the soft soil from the inside of ThunderClan camp, and she couldn't help but sink her claws into it- it was much more softer than the soil from ShadowClan, which was full of scattered pine cone needles, or RiverClans which was sandy all over and quite hard to navigate through. She thought.
Soon the eyes of every cat in the clearing were turned towards her, her scent and the noise they made as they entered catching their attention. There was mummers and curious glances thrown her way, and as both her scent and face were recognized the old dipped their heads in respect, while the young ones ears twitched in discomfort.
She liked the attention she was getting, and she held her head high as she looked around the clearing searching for a certain pair of eyes.
"This way." The young pale brown tom that had been sent to retrieve her hissed silently, taking her away from her search. He was clearly uncomfortable by all the stares, even if they were from his own clanmates. He then lead her toward a large den entrance where the tired wails of a future mother could be heard.
But before she could walk in a stern meow reached her ears, "Mintfur?" At the sound of her name she turned to meet a tall dark brown she-cat who's green eyes shinned with authority. Ah there they were, those certain pair of eyes she had been looking for. She found herself staring at the she-cat with the lovely green eyes, and gave her a toothy grin before responding.
"Ah, hello Birchstar aren't you as lovely as ever?" The grey she-cat purred walking towards the brown cat. "Were you not expecting me?" She let out a little giggle as the tall she-cats ear twitched nervously.
"I expected ShadowClan to send their apprentice, Featherpaw," Birchstar meowed hesitantly.
"Well you see my dear, when I heard the worried yowl of your messenger asking for help," Mintfur meowed sweetly, "I decided it was best if I came."
Birchstar gave a little sigh and glanced swiftly at the grey she-cat before flicking her tail towards the large den. "Briarpaw is in there, she will assist you with anything you need." She turned around to leave but paused. "Thank you." She meowed quietly before retreating into a dark den.
Mintfur watched as the ThunderClan leader left and felt a smile form on her muzzle. Then she quickly entered, it was quite huge but was filled with fireflies, and she had to navigate her way through some iffy queens with squirming kits until she stood next to a young dark brown she-cat, who sat silently with her tail wrapped around her paws. Unaffected by the tired pained yowls of the she-cat that writhed in the moss-covered floor.
This piked Mintfur's interest, gently she placed an expert paw on the dark queens belly feeling and quickly prodding the queen to examine the current situation. "Hmmm so how long has she been trying to kit ?" She asked.
The dark brown tabby flicked her ear, keeping her stone-cold gaze on the writhing patient and meowed simply, "Since this afternoon."
"Ehhh, really!?" Mintfur's eyes widened slightly in surprise, looking over to the other queens half expecting them to shake their heads in denial. "Well, it seems to me that the kit is trying to come into this world tail first which would explain this whole ordeal. But Dewfeather could have easily fixed this, where in the world is he?"
To Mintfur's surprise the young fluff-covered cat looked neither worried or concerned, but more so annoyed. "He doesn't like Nightbird." she meowed coolly, lifting herself to stand behind the tired queen. "Now since you're here tell me what to do, before she dies."
"Well, you must be Briarpaw." Mintfur meowed eyeing the dark brown apprentice curiously.
A/N: So for my story I decided to switch it up a bit, so Medicine cats are the highest rank and the leaders basically take orders from then since they are specifically connected to StarClan. Not just anybody can be a medicine cat, it is like a vocation they are respected by all and also feared because of the power they have over the clans. Every Clan also has a specific mark which is located under their eyes, medicine cats have two lines which can be located on any part of their body.
If you have questions please ask, if you have any characters please PM me a detailed description and personality and I will gladly use them.
